Kingsford Hotel Manila Bay

8/10 Good
"Good location near the airport. Free shuttle from airport and to airport (need reservation). The breakfast was good. Room is good for the price, but it still smelled like someone smoked in the room before. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good security. Near another fancier hotel (which means other options for meals or Casino entertainment). Not far from other newer malls in Manila. Manila is a nice place to visit, but make sure your GRAB app is working so you can call cars/taxi to get you from point A to point B. Also make sure you have some Philippine Peso, as not many places take credit card or U.S. Dollars."

Convenient to walk into BGC shopping and restaurants. Quiet. Safe and Secure property. Laundry service is available and modestly priced. A good value for what we all had washed and cleaned.

"My stay was very brief and I was unwell for most of it but the room serviced meals/ drinks were very nice. The rooms are kept in a very immaculate order. Staff are promptly addressing concerns and may be a bit slower at certain times when it's crowded but are always in a pleasant mood. Only concern would be the room soundproofing may need an upgrade. Other than that it was a good stay."
